Don’t Forget to Breathe

The holidays have a tendency to bring on unnecessary stress between gatherings with friends and family, children being out of school, holiday parties and trying to coordinate this, that, and the other.  With all the craziness that surrounds us, it can be easy to forget what the holidays truly are all about. Check out this week’s Pro Tip to help batch up and cross a few items off of your list.

Pro Tip:

Instead of racking your brain for the perfect gift to bring to parties, schedule an afternoon, turn on some good music, and bake confections of your choice that you can bring with you. This is also a great time to show your appreciation for your doorman, UPS delivery driver, and anyone else you’re thankful for in your life. Sometimes in this busy digital world, it’s the simple things and gestures that mean and matter the most.
